NAMM Show where she visits the Budda Amps booth. In this segment, we
get to check out their newest amp for 2010 -- the MN-100.
The
Budda MN-100 is a highly versatile, high-gain amplifier featuring three
independent channels, a 100-watt power section driven by four 6L6GC
tubes, and a preamp consisting of seven two-stage 12AX7 tubes. The
MN-100 also features dual 5U4 rectifier tubes and a solid-state
rectifier, with the patent-pending PowerPan? variable rectification
control that allows players to open uncharted tone territory by
selecting full tube rectification, diode rectification or anywhere
between the two.
All three of the Budda MN-100's independent
channels?Clean, Rhythm and Lead?include separate three-band EQ, Reverb,
Resonance, Presence, and true bypass effects loop with send and return
levels. Each channel also features Overboost, a stompbox-style lead
boost that engages an additional tube-driven gain circuit to gives
players a supercharged boost. The effects loop on channel 2 can also be
used as a global loop for incredible versatility in effects routing.
The included nine-button footcontroller digitally switches via MIDI all
three channels, effects loops and Overboost functions, as well as
Master Reverb and Master Boost, a second Master Volume control that can
be used to boost the overall volume of the amp.
This
multi-faceted, innovative amplifier found its aesthetic equal in the
custom Italian leathers, signature dragon embellishments and metalwork
of footwear designer Mark Nason (www.marknason.com). No stranger to the
rock&roll; lifestyle, Mark Nason's signature couture creations
translate easily from Sunset Boulevard to center stage on the Budda
MN-100 and MN-412.
The Budda MN-100 also features a half-power
switch for operating the amplifier in either 50 or 100 watt mode. The
back panel also features an amplifier chain section with power-amp
inputs and a slave output, impedance selector and MIDI input and output
for use in MIDI-switching rigs. The matching MN-412? cabinet features
four Budda Phat 12 loudspeakers and Mark Nason leather covering.
